Watercolour

A watercolour is a picture painted with water-based paints.

I especially love painting in watercolour.

I have been studying Japanese aesthetics consciously since my teenage years on Lulu Island, or maybe even before, as a prepubescent somewhat unwittingly in the Philippines. In Quezon City, we kids watched Japanese samurai shows and cartoons. We made Zero fighters and Messerschmidts as cardboard airplanes to hang from the ceiling of our library, where we had collection jars of crab-like spiders with thick exoskeletons. On Lulu Island, I studied autodidactically the basics of Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji, the components of the Japanese language, during vacation as a teenager, whilst I did also watercolour painting and sculptures from DAS air-dry clay. I then took Japanese language in university. In my twenties, I actually lived in Japan for some time. Later, for years on my Social Media, I have been observing exquisite Japanese images. And I become a fan of anime. To me, Japanese aesthetics allude to Finnish, Eskimo, and Polynesian artwork. Japanese art can contrast the ancient with the ultramodern.

This paper can handle watercolour well.

I like watercolour paintings.

Joseph is a very well-known watercolour artist in my region.

I read a book about the secrets of the masters of watercolour. It was truly captivating.

Soft bristle paintbrushes are best for watercolour painting.

Her acrylic paintings are impressive, but she hasn't quite mastered watercolour yet.

She's a watercolour expert, but terrible at oil painting.
